North Carolina is not cheap anymore, so many from California, Seattle and from up north have moved here. In one year, prices on existing homes have doubled and property tax and home insurance have gone up. Food and utilities are through the roof and beautiful farmland is now cheap built homes and apartments. A one bedroom apartment is now considerably over $1200 a month, and these are not fancy places. Lucky for us, our thirty-year mortgage is almost paid off, however the property tax jumped from $1300 to $2400 and some change. Some of the retired folks we know who are on a fixed income and who budget wisely are now in jeopardy of being homeless. They can't keep to the budget because every time they turn around the price for all including food and utilities goes up.

You probably know that taxes and insurance are on the rise in Florida. If you're considering a condo, be aware that condominiums now require recertification every 25 years. That means that the building has to be brought up to code. Special assessments for recertification can run into the tens of thousands, and even hundreds of thousands of dollars per resident.

That state shouldn't even be on her list.

Aside from the enormous expense of repairs, the building will need to be recertified.

Looking at this well constructed list we can see that life does not have to be so complicated, expensive or full of property taxes. There are some great states on this list where you can get more bang for your buck. I never considered Maine before, but with global warming and Canadian forest fires it may not be as cold of a state as I thought it was (at least for the future).

Cracks me up your assessment that certain States like Texas have fantastic weather and your not taking into account the Humidity, my mom was from southern California and joined the Air Force,was one of the original women to join before they actually had womans properly sized work uniforms so were given men's fatigues. They sent her and the other new recruits by train to San Antonio for Basic Training and she said that when the doors to the train car opened the humidity hit you like a brick wall and some ladies fainted almost immediately ftom the rapid temperature change. They arrived at 12:00 am(midnight) so please in future you might want to mention the humidity index when considering a move to a state. We had a neighbor who originally came from Mississippi and always talked about wanting to go back home, My mom told her she would not like it there anymore due to the humidity and she said oh no it doesn't bother me it never did. Mom said after living in southern California for so many years your body won't be able to adjust to it plus you are older. Well when her husband finally retired they sold there house and moved back to Mississippi, I don't know exactly how long they were there but less than a year and back to southern California they came and bought another home to stay for the rest of their lives, we went to see her at her home and she said she just couldn't take the heat and humidity and neither could Earnest her husband and she just can't believe how hot and miserable it was. Had friends from Texas move to southern California and loved it but due to her husband's work situation they moved to North Carolina but were back in town in a month and tried to get their old apartment back but it had just been rented to New tenants. Asked why they left and Same thing heat and humidity, couldn't take it and tried going back to Texas but again heat and humidity couldn't take it, finally they moved to Fort Collins ,CO. AND love it there. So as you see mentioning not only heat but the humidity index is rather important and a real thing to take into consideration when making a move.

Wouldn't it be better to just move to a more civilized country or to seek a place where the cost-of-living is so much more affordable? I understand that in Israel, having a large family means less paying of taxes. How many other places could we go to, that give a tax break for reproducing more children?

[@billredding2000]

Not likely...but I do get your meaning, IF most of the people coming from CA are liberals/Democrats and continue to vote the same DF/S way they did in CA. Same for anyone coming from other woke/dysfunctional states like OR & WA. STAY there instead... -- BR

Texas is TOO HOT !!!

[@billredding2000]

@@TheBargainManFor me it IS just a "tad" too hot...but decades back it wasn't so I've noticed the "climate change" here in West TX (ELP ) since then (mid-1960s). I'm just back here NOW getting ready to go back to CO, IF by then the housing market is more affordable and the mortgage interest rate has dropped big time, so I can BUY vs. continue renting apts. But yeah...if I don't get at least 106F in the Summer when I'm working in my metal building self-storage facility (NOT climate-controlled, just an oven), I'm not truly getting the "full" Texas experience...and I feel cheated. But you know, some people don't like the teens & below-zero temps in CO. Go figure. ;-) -- BR

I don't know where she is getting her population figures but they are way off. Georgia added about a million people at the last census in 2020. That means approximately 100,000 people per year are moving to Georgia...She says 5000 families moved to Georgia last year. That's about 20 people per family !

I can’t believe you left out Pennsylvania. The keystone state I can’t believe you mentioned Florida overcrowded to say the least many are leaving, and the weather climate is not conduciveto year-round living. Texas has been hit hard with open border, bad weather such as Dallas, Houston and other areas I would not put that on the list Pennsylvania is the most beautiful state in the country not susceptible to bad weather whether year-round. With more lakes than any other state in the country and we have preserved millions of acres from development.

[@Chicagogirl2023-kr7zt]

My former husband is from PA, New Alexandria, so I've been to PA many times, and have considered it for retirement. Pittsburgh is on a list of financially troubled cities so where would you recommend? Being from Chicago I prefer the 4 seasons but have been spoiled living in CA for over 20 years 😎 Being a demorcrat I need to be with politically like-minded people and parts of PA was very red.

[@stephendiamond9893]

@@Chicagogirl2023-kr7zt I hear ya. Many people put their political persuasion before anything else. I could only tell you what I do know. I used to be a Democrat. In fact, many people in Pennsylvania years ago were Democrats. They believed in civil liberties they believed in quality of life and education. But recently within the last three or four years many of the blue areas of Pennsylvania are turning red because they believe their party has failed them. With inflation regulations and their children cannot afford a home The biggest thing that has affected them has been the open borders illegals coming in and lack of vetting. Remember Pennsylvania is an agricultural state. Many of the farms if not all the farms are family owned. But because the Democrats want to get rid of livestock and start producing in a lab is turning the blue state into red My only recommendation is this if your political persuasion is greater than anything else I would recommend going to a blue state like California or New York. However, you may want to do some research first. But if you’re looking for quality of life, peaceful, living among friendly habitants, the Pocono mountains is the place to be. Besides the fact, pensions and retirement income is not taxable in the state. There is so much to do here . And the real estate is very affordable Just to give you an example, you could have a home built on a few acres for less than $400,000 a nice home brand new. The same home in Massachusetts would probably run $1 million in New York over $1 million and Connecticut easily $1 million as well as New Jersey .

May you should move to Texas - It's a great place - Lot of cowboys and cowgirls. Heck the state tax where is live is just 8.25% and my house I bought for under 400,000 is worth almost a Million, according to the county tax collector. I only pay 1K per month on Property Taxes. Lots to do in Texas - You can watch the Illegals come across the border and plenty of Illegals to help you get all anything you want done. Need a house cleaned or yard work or help moving - These people work really hard and are so friendly - It helps if you speak Spanish. So come on in and help the great state of Texas grow!

Texas is going liberal with horrible weather. Florida is too expensive, crowded and hot/humid. Idaho doesn't want you and it's too cold in the winter. Maine - too cold, too liberal. Nevada still overpriced - brutally hot in the summer in Vegas. North Carolina, Georgia and Delaware too liberal. Nothing interesting in South Carolina.
